 Africa Educates Her Campaign is on going. Nice covid-19 song

 Post-COVID education needs to rely on more sustainable and holistic measures that go beyond just accessing education, but also address the obstacles encountered by girls and young women in accessing quality education and completing the school cycle.

Today we have many guests in our programme. This instrumental group suddenly created a song for covid-19.

Lyrics

The corona will kill us, it will, it will,

let's get prepared  ... let's wash our hands with soap and water,

water and soap, wash your hands and use alcohol gel, just to clean your hands

and wear the mask whenever you leave your house

Let's protect ourselves from covid-19 because it is killing oh my brother!

Covid-19 is killing, oh my brother, run away from it and always protect yourself

Wash your hands with water and soap, wash your hands with water and soap ohh,

wash your hands with water and soap, put the gel just to clean your hands

Always fighting against Covid-19 !!!!!

Interview

We also have Laurinda, she will share with us how covid-19 affected her student life.

Laurinda is 17 years old and she is a student of 11th class, studying electronics and telecommunications. 

She says that the covid-19 pandemic has affected her in a tragic way, an unexpected separation from her colleagues and teachers, suddenly stopped studying and have been paralyzed for a long time.  Although this was a misfortune that happened, she did not stop studying. Laurinda has been reading various school books to keep  high her level of student performance.

Before schools open, the government must prepare comfortable conditions for students. Classrooms with few students, strict control of social distance and free distribution of biosafety materials, such as masks, soap, alcohol-gel etc. Recommended Laurinda.

Guiding principles to keep in mind

Everyone’s goal is to prioritize the reopening of schools as safely and as quickly as possible given the many known and established benefits of in-person learning. In order to enable this and assist schools with their day-to-day operations, it is important to adopt and diligently implement actions to slow the spread of COVID-19 inside the school and out in the community. 

Vigilance to these actions will moderate the risk of in-school transmission regardless of the underlying community burden – with risk being the lowest if community transmission is low and there is fidelity to implementing proven mitigation strategies.
